OREGON COW LEADS ALL
BEAVERTOX JERSEY MAKES
PHENOMENAL PERFORMANCE.
World's Butterfat Record for All
Breeds of Dairy Cattle in Senior
Yearling Class Broken.
NEW YORK, Dec. 20. (Special.)
Lulu Alphea of Ashburn, a young
Jersey cow owned by J. J. Van Kleek
& Sons, of Beaverton. Or., has broken
the world's yearly butterfat record
for all breeds of dairy cattle in the
senior yearling class. According to
announcement Just issued by the
American Jersey Cattle club, this
phenomenal cow produced 800.08
pounds of butterfat on a 365-day test,
which was commenced when she was
only 22 months old and which ended
November 30.
This record not only breaks the
present Jersey senior yearling figure
of 643.82 pounds of butterfat. held
by Silver Chimes Owendola,' in . the
Doerfler he"rd at Silverton, Or., but it
raises the record for all breeds and
brands Lulu Alphea of Ashburn as
the greatest young cow of the dairy
world.
Lulu Alphea of Ashburn was bred
by J. M. Dickson & Son. of Shedd,
Or., and at the age of 9 months was
sold to J. J. Van Kleek & Sons for
150. She was sired by St. Mawes of
Ashburn. a bull from the famous
Cary herd,- and is out of Wllda of
Ashburn second, a line-bred repre
sentative of the Golden Glow's Chief
family. She. therefore, combines the
blood of St. Mawes and Golden Glow's
Chief the two outstanding bulls of
tne jersey breed in Oregon. Those
who have seen Lulu Alphea of Ash-'
burn believe that she will eventually
break the Jersey record for all ages
now held by the famous Oregon cow
Vive La France.
During her recent test the new
senior yearling champion was milked,
fed and cared for by W. A. Van
Kleek, who proved himself to be one
of the best feeders and herdsmen on
record. He milked the heifer three
times a day, with no holidays or
vacations. The test was carried on
under the supervision of the Oregon
Agricultural college, and frequent
retests were made by representatives
of the University of California, Uni
versity of Idaho and Washington
State college. The amount of milk
produced was 13,668.7 pounds, which
averaged 5.85 per cent butterfat.
Fall Down Shaft Injures.
ALBANY, Or.. Dec. 20. (Special.)
Edward Reeser, 19 years old, suffered
severe injuries when he fell down an
elevator shaft at the Nebergall Meat
Packing plant here. His injuries in
cluded the fracture of both arms, a
broken finger, a cut on the face aid
the loss of some teeth. The young
man. who resides near this city, had
gone to the plant on business and ac
cidentally stepped into the open shaft
and fell 12 feet to the basement floor.

Edward Knipper Says Mixture Is to
Go in Pies, but Will Have to
Explain to Grand Jury.
Is It possible to get a sufficient
"kick" out of fig cordial providing
the fig mash is allowed to ferment
for a sufficient length of time?
United States Commissioner Drake
confessed yesterday that he didn't
know, but rather than take any
chances he decided to pass the ques
tion on to persons who might have
more knowledge of the antecedents of
King Alcohol.
Consequently, he held Edward
Knipper, a Third street baker, to the
federal grand Jury on a technical
charge of operating a distillery.
Revenue officers swooped down on
Knlpper's bake shop several days ago,
and located four massive tubs filled
with fig mash. A suspicious odor per
meated the place and a jar of th
liquid . looked and smelled decidedly
stronger than an ordinary "chaser."
At the hearing yesterday before
United States Commissioner Drake,
Knipper protested he was making the
fig mash for fig pies. He said he
baked about 80 fig pies a week and
his fig mash was not an excessive
quantity.
Knlpper's attorney assured the
court he had had considerable exper
ience in his professional capacity
with liquors of all kinds and he had
never before heard of fig whisky,
brandy or cordial.
